The Angel Clan was an extremely formidable race, exceptionally so.

 

Faced with Yu Zi Yu’s sudden invasion, the entire Angel Clan, though somewhat startled, quickly began operating like a well-oiled machine.

 

At this moment, if one looked skyward, they would see countless experts already locked in battle.

 

Like two radiant suns, a violet and a golden light streaked across the sky. The storms unleashed by their clashes swept across thousands of kilometers, with dazzling golden brilliance and profound violet glow seemed to bloom magnificently at the horizon.

 

Those of the Void Clan deliberately avoided affecting the Void Vortex, while the Angel Clan, fighting in their heartland, refrained from damaging Lumina Sanctis.

 

With a tacit understanding, both sides led their confrontation toward the horizon.

 

Meanwhile, elsewhere on the battlefield, the intensity was no less.

 

*Roooooaar…* With a guttural roar, a Tier-5 Void Creature that had just emerged from the vortex charged toward a group of approaching High Angels.

 

*Boooooom…* A deafening explosion rang out as this Void Creature, that had parasitized a Troll, wielded its massive spiked mace and sent an attacking High Angel flying.

 

The immense power it wielded sent endless ripples through space, shaking Heaven.

 

*Boooooom…* With another thunderous crash, a distant mountaintop was obliterated.

 

*Rooooaar…* Excited beyond measure, the Void Creature, that had parasitized a Troll, pounced toward the shattered remains of the mountain.

 

Slaughter and plunder, the innate cruelty of the Void Clan coursed through its very being, and was now displayed in full force.

 

Right then—

 

*Rooooaar…* A majestic Dragon Roar suddenly echoed from within the Void Vortex, before the vortex began to rapidly expand continuously.

 

Vaguely, one could make a colossal entity emerging from its depths.

 

*Rooooaar…* Another thunderous Dragon Roar resounded, carrying a majestic Dragon’s Prestige that spread through the vortex into the world beyond.

 

*Booooom, booooom, boooooom…* The plains beneath the Void Vortex trembled under the pressure, fracturing relentlessly.

 

“Is that a Void Emperor!?”

 

“How is this possible!? How can it descend at this moment!?”

 

One shocked exclamation after another erupted as countless Angels turned their gazes toward the vortex, their faces filled with disbelief.

 

Some even froze momentarily in the face of this unexpected development.

 

And in that brief instant of distraction—

 

*Crack…* Accompanied by a loud snap, the first Tier-5 Holy Sword Angel to arrive was caught by the tentacles of the Octopus-like Void Monster.

 

One tentacle after another coiled around the Angel’s body, binding it relentlessly.

 

In mere moments, the Holy Sword Angel was completely trapped, encased in a writhing mass of black tentacle, nearly 100 meters in diameter, suspended high in the sky.

 

“Break free!” With an enraged roar, dazzling golden light erupted from within the black sphere, radiating outward in powerful bursts.

 

Yet, despite the brilliant display of holy energy, the countless tentacles tightened their grip even further.

 

Amid the relentless constriction, an immense pressure crushed down upon the Holy Sword Angel like the weight of a thousand tons, and the sickening sound of cracking bones echoed through the air.

 

“Not bad.” A faint, cold voice echoed from within the Void Vortex, carrying a hint of approval.

 

Moments later, under the astonished gazes of countless Void Creatures, an enormous Dragon Head, as massive as a mountain, emerged from the vortex.

 

The Dragon Head was rather imposing, crowned with backward-curving violet horns atop its head. Long, flowing Dragon whiskers trailed the air, rippling with waves of violet light.

 

[An Evil Dragon, a true Evil Dragon.]

 

Though it was their first time witnessing such a being, the countless Angels instinctively arrived at this conclusion.

 

…

 

The Evil Dragon loomed menacingly, revealing only a fraction of its immense body from within the vortex.

 

But that was all it could manage for now.

 

The current Void Vortex was far from capable of accommodating Yu Zi Yu’s entire Form.

 

If not for the fact that Yu Zi Yu had sensed the approach of a terrifying presence moments ago, he would never have descended at this time.

 

[The timing is just right.] He thought to himself with a smirk, as his majestic Spiritual Energy surged.

 

*Boooooom…* With a thunderous roar, a glimmer of violet light flashed deep within Yu Zi Yu’s Purple Dragon Eyes.

 

Right then—

 

*Boooooom…* A faint violet sphere of light began expanding outward from him as its center.

 

This was the Void Sanctuary, an ability unique to Yu Zi Yu’s Purple Dragon Form, which allowed him to create an impenetrable sanctuary, harnessing the Void Energy.

 

Now, as the violet sphere continued to expand, it stirred an earth-shaking commotion.

 

*Rumble… Rumble…* The plains beneath began to split and sink.

 

Under the expanding faint violet circle, the vast grasslands crumbled like fragile paper, carving ravines thousands of meters deep in an instant.

 

Elsewhere, Angels were forced to retreat under the encroaching circle of light.

 

Those who failed to retreat in time—or dared not—were instantly obliterated by the Void Energy contained within the faint violet glow, reduced to wisps of smoke.

 

“You’ve got to be kidding me!” Voices filled with terror rang out as countless Angels stood dumbfounded, staring at the massive faint violet sphere in the sky.

 

Thin as it seemed, the translucent barrier was an impenetrable chasm, forcing even the mightiest Angel back.

 

From a distance, the sphere appeared as a massive inverted glass bowl, covering the grasslands below.

 

A kilometer…

 

Ten kilometers…

 

Twenty kilometers…

 

In just a few breaths, countless Angels had been forced back over twenty kilometers.

 

Within the inverted sphere, the grasslands disappeared, mountains crumbled, and the scene resembled a hellish abyss—a landscape of pure carnage.

 

Perhaps it was true to its name: Void Sanctuary.

 

Everything within was either obliterated or repelled, sparing only the creatures of the Void itself.

 

This was one of Yu Zi Yu’s formidable trump cards.

 

Perched within the violet sphere, Yu Zi Yu’s smile deepened.

 

Now, who could stop him from fully opening the Void Gate?

 

With the protection of the Void Sanctuary, Yu Zi Yu could act without restraint.

 

Of course, a cold, electronic voice interrupted his thoughts.

 

<Ding! You killed an Intermediate-Stage Tier-2 Angel. Evolution Points +200,000.>

<Ding! You killed a Late-Stage Tier-2 Angel. Evolution Points +300,000.>

<Ding! You killed an Intermediate-Stage Tier-3 Angel. Evolution Points +400,000. Plundered Ability—Holy Light Radiance.>

 

One system notification after another rang out, clearly illustrating the countless lives extinguished by Yu Zi Yu’s single deployment of the Void Sanctuary.
